KFA2 GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Smiles for the Camera
Here are some of the first pictures of a custom-design NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti graphics card, the KFA2 GTX 1070 Ti EX. For one, these pictures confirm the branding of NVIDIA "almost GTX 1080" SKU, positioned between its performance-segment GeForce GTX 1070, and its high-end GTX 1080. The KFA2 card ships with clock speeds of 1607 MHz core, 1683 MHz GPU Boost, and 8.00 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory, which works out to a memory bandwidth of 256 GB/s.
Based on the "GP104" silicon, the GTX 1070 Ti packs 2,432 CUDA cores, 152 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 256-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 8 GB of memory. The KFA2 card draws power from a combination of 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connectors, conditioning it with a 7-phase VRM. An aluminium fin-stack heatsink to which heat drawn directly from the GPU and ventilated by a pair of 100 mm fans, keeps the card cool. The VRM is cooled by a secondary heatsink, while the memory is cooled passively. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4, and one each of HDMI 2.0 and dual-link DVI-D. The card is expected to launch on October 26.

Btw a 1080 is still faster than a 1070ti, nv was only trying to close a price gap the Vega56 and 64 cover
The 1070Ti doesn't make any sense. NV just wanted to have a card that is a bit faster than the Vega56 as they couldn't stand that it overtook the 1070.... The 1070Ti will be close to a 1070 custom than a 1080 custom.
a) Nvidia probably have a bunch of gpus that does not made it to gtx1080 and have more working shaders than gtx1070.
b) Nvidia needs a new card to sell on holiday season. gtx1070 and gtx1080 are year and half old.
